Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble - 1st Month Community IL Compilation

Bobbykaze 2024-07-25 | Decided to compile all of the current IL records into a single video to show how much progress was made. Still lots of room for new strategies but really crazy progress for just the first month. Shoutouts to all the runners not just in this video but everyone running the game.

Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble - Community Battle Mode Grand Prix

Bobbykaze 2024-07-21 | SnowballSMB's POV - youtu.be/XYkioNKGgKo?feature=shared

This event was held by the Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble/Banana Mania speedrun community on July 20th 2024. 1 slot was open and I was fortunate enough to join but had basically 0 practice. Despite that I managed to come in 9th which is not too bad all things considered. Thanks again to the community for hosting the event and allowing me to take part in it!

Shadow of the Colossus (PS3) - Cutscene Manipulation (XMB + Controller Disconnect Method)

Bobbykaze 2024-05-19 | *Exact Timing for both XMB pause and Disconnect - youtu.be/DG0KpC1W7xA?feature=shared

By pausing and interrupting the game either by pressing the ps home button or just unplugging the controller, you can manipulate the spawning position of colossi. The XMB method was known of for many years but was solved by 4 runners and dubbed the 4J's method. I was able to figure out that it can also work by unplugging the controller at a specific time but seems quite inconsistent in comparison.

Ridge Racers 2 (PSP) - Music Glitch

Bobbykaze 2024-05-06 | I believe this is caused by skipping the track intro scene right before the camera switches to the player. I've also had this strange glitch happen on the ps4/5 version.

Gran Turismo (PSP) - Nürburgring Nordschleife in 3:30.133 (Glitched)

Bobbykaze 2024-03-19 | I never even noticed that I did a lap but it seems if you get launched back past the start it can count as a full lap. Tried to replicate this for hours but to no avail, only getting "checkpoint laps".

Midnight Club: L.A. Remix - Finishing Tournament Races Early

Bobbykaze 2024-02-16 | It seems that the game checks your position in the race during the damage out and if you remain in that position during the check you can end/win tournament races early saving lots of time. Also worth noting is that using zone during this could halt other racers during this "check" which could possibly simplify the process. This does not seem to work for individual races.

Midnight Club: L.A. Remix (PSP) - Tokyo Any% in 2:59:25

Bobbykaze 2024-02-16 | Routed this out in a couple of days and managed to get this run.

Played on a docked PSP GO.

Ridge Racers 2 (PS5) - Kamata Angelus AI Glitch

Bobbykaze 2024-01-08 | Possibly the fastest AI rubberband speedup ever for this game.

Ridge Racers 2 - Wild AI Rubberband Glitch

Bobbykaze 2024-01-04 | Pretty rare glitch but I've never seen it happen to this effect before.

Here are some other instances of this glitch happening.

Played on a PS5 slim with a ps access controller (It's really good).

MediEvil Resurrection (PS4) - Update 1.02

Bobbykaze 2023-09-20 | Sword clipping now works correctly making this the most viable way to run this game.

Ape Escape: On the Loose - Glitched Water/Ground State

Bobbykaze 2023-09-15 | When spike is grabbed by an enemy during swim in air he will be put back into a ground like state when let go. This causes the game to put spike in both states at the same time which has interesting results.

Ape Escape: On the Loose - Thick Jungle - Swim in Air

Bobbykaze 2023-09-15 | Based on the new clipping method found by crash - youtube.com/watch?v=Y0uyhlANAkk
